This question was answered on 9th July 2018
Defra has not estimated the value of recreational sea angling to the Sussex economy.
However, Defra’s ‘Sea Angling 2012’ research found that sea anglers resident in England spent £1.23 billion on the sport (it is not possible to provide robust figures by county).
